Call
for an Open Meeting

Say
“NO” to the Neo-Nazi “Golden Dawn” in New York City

Golden
Dawn, G.D. (in Greek, Chrysi Avgi), the neo-Nazi, ultra-nationalistic party,
which was recently elected to the Greek Parliament under the pretext of concern
over unemployment, austerity and the economy, and while engaging in virulent
anti-immigrant rhetoric and anti-democratic, nationalistic activities, has now
established a chapter in New York City. Several groups and organizations have
already publicly expressed their outrage and have called for immediate action.

For
over 30 years, G.D. has operated from the margins of the far right political
spectrum using the
symbols, practices and methods of a racist, anti-democratic and intolerant
neo-Nazi ideology. The recent economic crisis, however, has brought them to the
forefront of political developments. They drew the attention of the
international media when one of their Parliament members physically attacked
two women from Left wing parties on live television a few months ago. Before
that incident and since, G.D. thugs have organized murderous attacks against
immigrants, left wingers, gays as well as anyone who will stand in their way.

G.D.
harbors common criminals. In the 70s, the “Fuhrer,” as they honorably call their
leader, was imprisoned for setting off bombs in cinemas that showed films of
Soviet production. Around the same period, members of the organization were
also prosecuted for committing acts of terrorism against left wing newspapers
and organizations. Today, they exhibit particular disdain against Muslims while
they also openly deny the Holocaust.

In New
York City, G.D. masquerades as a philanthropic organization conducting food and
clothing drives. The goal of such activities is to popularize G.D.’s neo-Nazi
ideology and raise the public’s sympathy. G.D.’s ‘philanthropic’ activity is a
cynical ploy and has to be condemned as such. Alternatively, “Doctors of the
World,” “AHEPA,” and a number of other legitimate international or
community-based NGOs rely on our help to support the Greek people.

History
teaches us that economic crises can breed hatred, racism and ultimately
fascism. Capitalism divides us along social, cultural and political lines so as
to dominated us more effectively. Few cities in the world other than New York
know this better. We therefore invite immigrant organizations, unions,
teachers’ associations and cultural organizations to an open meeting where we
can freely discuss and decide how we can effectively act against racism,
violence and fascism.

the end of the world of the spectacle

if we don't want to participate in the spectacle of the end of the world we will have to work towards the end of the world of the spectacle. The spectacle is where all the relations, the needs, the dreams, the wishes are turned into profitable commodity, into obligation, into blackmail...There life turns into a spectacle of real life and the world turns into an endless desert

"VOID MIRROR : International Digital Magazine for the Global Movement" by Void Network

...all these Void Network peoplein Europe, in Amerikas, in the Outer Space...we started realizing that there are existing out there thousands of creative friends, spiritual comrades, political, social and cultural activists, radical theoreticians and crazy thinkers, artists that hate the high-class luxury and space out motherfuckers that send us mails, announcements, manifestos, essays, videos, songs, they make contact with us, we find them on our way, we meet at the barricades, at the parties, the concerts, the second-hand vinyl record shops, we find them on the mountains, in the streets of Metropolis, in some seaside free campings on the outside border lines of the Empire, in the Rainbow Gatherings, in Eco-Communities, squatted universities, on the steps that leads to Ganga in Varanasi, in the middle of the tear gass, on the most dangerous streets of Mexico city or in a small village somewhere out-there in Africa...we meet sometimes in some specific illegal raves, sometimes in hardcore punk occupied buildings, or in strange lectures, in underground bars, in poetry shows and demonstrations... almost all around the world!Void Mirror international digital magazine is dedicated in all our unknown friends!

Also we realised that there are existing thousands of interesting social struggles all around the world and there are existing parallel movements that don't know each other...even if they fight for really parallel reasons, in same fights, against same enemies, on the same destroyed planet...Void Mirror is dedicated in all unknown social, political and cultural struggles of this world

And then...we realised also that there are existing millions and millions of possible links of wonderful, interesting, inspiring, mind exploding material out there in the digital space...music, arts, design, video art, political theory, poetry, utopia, analysis, critical thinking, advice, philosophy...created by fighting people, created by amateur intellectuals or university teachers, by crazy everyday life inspired philosophers and somehow all this information needs prismatic rearranging, free re-distribution, mechanisms of collecting, take care and share back again, space holes and electronic tubes that you can find all your favorite ideas coming together in inspirational general conclusions, anti-fragmentation magnetic forces...And we found for sure so many empty bottles in the sea-side sending some old maps to nowhereland, some old messages about treasures hiding in the end of mind, some great thoughts from some dead comrades that they had put all their dreams, decades ago, on a paper...in a bottle and they through them to the oceans of Time for the benefit of the future generation revolutionaries...Void Mirror is dedicated to the culture, the dreams and the visions of the future generation RevolutionariesIt is a network of dreams and struggles, a net of hopes and understandings, a moment of clear mind, a good debate, a late-night fight with a lover, a last drink before going home...It is more than anything else an Open Horizon, a VOID MIRROR
